Pei Qian returned to his residence and took a nap after comforting Lu Mingliang. Then, he got up to look for Tian Mo.
He had already made an appointment with Liang Qingfan today to bring Tian Mo to take a look at the renovation of the new experience store. At the same time, he had to finalize some details of the experience store.
Pei Qian did not ask about the new experience store after handing it over to Liang Qingfan. He did not even know where the experience store was, much less what it looked like.
This time, Pei Qian did not ask about the location. On one hand, he had been busy previously. On the other hand, he felt that it would be useless to ask.
That was how the Sloth Apartments were back then. Pei Qian could be said to have carefully selected the first few buildings. They were all found in all sorts of corners. In the end, they became popular and their prices skyrocketed.
Pei Qian thought that the potential for such a building to appreciate was too great. Thus, he found a more prosperous location for the Sloth Apartments 2.0 model. In the end, it became even more popular.
Similar experiences had already played out in Fish-Catching Internet Cafe and many other physical businesses many times.
Thus, Pei Qian realized that the location did not seem to have much to do with whether it would become popular or not.
In fact, the location that he had put in so much effort might have a negative effect.
Since that was the case, why not be a lazy dog?
Choosing a location was very troublesome. He had to drive all over Jingzhou and confirm everywhere when he arrived. He often had to run for three to four days in order to finalize a location.
It was already troublesome enough for ordinary people to rent a house. Choosing a location for a store was many times more troublesome than renting a house.
Since it was the same no matter which choice he made, Pei Qian did not want to waste any effort. He left everything to Liang Qingfan.
Of course, that did not mean that Pei Qian would sit back and do nothing. He pondered that whether a physical industry would become popular or not had little to do with the location, but it had a lot to do with the people.
As long as he controlled Tian Mo firmly and then controlled the entire sales department through him, it would not be a big problem.
Before long, Pei Qian arrived outside the store where Tian Mo was.
There were a few customers shopping in the store. It was not as deserted as at the beginning, nor was it as popular as when the G1 cell phone was first released. It had returned to normal.
Pei Qian sighed silently.
He could only say that it was too hurtful to give the address of the experience store at the G1 cell phone news conference. Everyone in Jingzhou knew that Tengda's first experience store was here and wanted to take a look.
What's more, G1 cell phones were still out of stock at the moment. A batch of goods was produced, and they would last for a period of time. Then, they would be sold out, and they would be out of stock for a period of time. This cycle repeated.
Many customers who hadn't made up their minds on whether to buy or not, or customers who wanted to come to the offline store to pre-order after the official website was temporarily sold out, formed the main force of the store visitors.
Pei Qian was still wearing his mask. He pretended to be a passerby and secretly observed the situation in the shop.
Tian Mo was still conscientiously introducing the flaws of these products to interested customers. Compared to the last time, he seemed to be speaking more fluently.
After all, Tian Mo was not very familiar with the cell phone when the G1 cell phone was first released the last time. He stumbled when talking about its shortcomings. Now that he had used it himself and was familiar with the various parameters, it was smooth for him to talk about its shortcomings.
However, the customers were used to it and would even chat with him for a while.
"Didn't Tengda release a new smart fitness drying rack recently? Why doesn't your experience store have it? "A brother asked.
Tian Mo immediately explained, "That product takes up too much space. It can't be placed in the experience store."
"If you want to experience it, you can go to the nearby Deposit Fitness to experience it. There are a few ready-made equipment there, and there are fitness trainers to help explain."
The brother looked around and nodded. "I really can't put it down. However, speaking of which, Tengda is such a huge company. It's very magnanimous in everything it does. Why is its first experience store so stingy? "
"Such a small shop looks like a grocery store. It doesn't match Tengda's temperament. The products can't even be displayed."
Tian Mo smiled. "This is just a test. There should be a bigger shop in the future."
The customers walked around the store and tried the latest G1 cell phone prototype. They left their information and waited to pick up the goods later.
The guy who asked about the smart fitness drying rack ran straight for the elevator. Obviously, he planned to head to the nearby Deposit Fitness after leaving the shopping mall.
Pei Qian immediately walked in and greeted Tian Mo seeing that there were no other customers in the store.
"Lock the door. Today's business is over."
"I'll bring you and Zhuang Dong to take a look at the new experience store."
Tian Mo was stunned for a moment before he quickly said, "Alright!"
He could not help but feel delighted. He had just said that this experience store was too small. Wouldn't a big experience store be here?
Tian Mo did not know much about this new experience store. He only knew that this thing was being renovated. However, he did not know where it was or how big it was.
That was normal. After all, Tian Mo knew himself very well. Given his current level, he probably did not have the qualifications to participate in the selection and design of the experience store.
His title might be the person-in-charge of the sales department, but Tian Mo felt that his actual ability was not even comparable to an ordinary real estate agent. Thus, he would listen to Boss Pei's arrangements.
Tian Mo was very happy to hear that they were going to see the new experience store today. He called Zhuang Dong out and locked the door.
Everyone walked towards the underground parking lot.
Tian Mo asked curiously, "Boss Pei, where is the new experience store?"
Pei Qian remained silent for a moment. "This … I don't know either. I'll leave it to Liang Qingfan."
Tian Mo nodded and stopped asking.
It looked like Boss Pei did not participate in the selection of the experience store.
However, Tian Mo felt that it must be for a different reason.
Boss Pei was definitely too busy with work and trusted Liang Qingfan very much. That was why he handed this task to Liang Qingfan.
After taking a few more steps, Pei Qian asked, "Have you decided on the other candidates for the sales department?"
Pei Qian had already told Tian Mo to choose his own candidates for the sales department. He would find them from his friends and classmates. What's more, their education must not surpass his.
Tian Mo only had a high school education. This condition was still a little harsh. Pei Qian was afraid that it would be difficult for him to complete it.
Tian Mo quickly answered, "Boss Pei, I've found fifteen people at the moment!"
"These people completely meet your requirements. They are all my middle school and high school classmates. I have a good relationship with them, and their education does not surpass mine."
"I've already asked them to resign from their current jobs. They're on standby at home and memorize the sales department's guidelines. Four of them are especially close. I've arranged for them to take turns to look after the shop with me. However, it just so happens that Zhuang Dong and I are on duty today. They are not in the shop. Otherwise, I could introduce them to you. "
"However, if there are any more … I really can't find them."
Pei Qian nodded slightly.
Fifteen people. Including Tian Mo and Zhuang Dong, there were seventeen people.
It was hard on Tian Mo to find so many talents.
However, this number was still not enough.
The new experience store was at least a few thousand square meters. It was divided into several large areas. These salespeople were not robots. They had to take shifts and deal with all sorts of things in the store.
What's more, Pei Qian had set up this sales department to nurture the 'sales talents' that he needed. In the future, he would open more experience stores. In fact, these sales would even be distributed to Fish-Catching Internet Cafe and other industries.
The talent gap was too huge.
The first batch of employees in the new experience store would almost all become the branch managers or core members of another experience store in the future and be sent out.
Thus, the first batch of employees in the new experience store could only be more and not less. Seventeen people was still far from enough.
Pei Qian pondered for a moment. "Continue to recruit people, but you can broaden the scope slightly. For example, your friends. However, you have to be careful. You can't hire those who have been brainwashed by other companies. You can't hire those who might not recognize or even go against the sales department's purpose. "
Tian Mo quickly nodded. "Understood!"
After arriving at the underground parking lot and getting into the commercial car, Little Sun drove the three of them to the new experience store.
Liang Qingfan was already waiting there.
More than ten minutes later, the commercial car stopped.
"Boss Pei, we're here."
Pei Qian had been playing with his cell phone the entire time and did not look at the road carefully. It was only then that he put away his cell phone and looked out the window.
Then, he saw the huge promotional poster of Modest.
Pei Qian: "…"
Wasn't this the Great World?
The venue for GOG's first international invitational tournament and the GPL league?
Pei Qian was speechless.
Liang Qingfan, Liang Qingfan, you can't choose this place even if you want to!
Aren't you causing trouble?
Even if you choose Huanyu Tianjie, it would be better than here. After all, there was no GPL league at Huanyu Tianjie!
However, on further thought, Pei Qian felt that something was amiss.
That was because Pei Qian had been to the Great World many times and was very familiar with this shopping mall.
The Great World was a large shopping mall in Jingzhou that was second only to Huanyu Tianjie. What's more, ever since the GPL entered, the traffic had increased exponentially. It was no longer inferior to Huanyu Tianjie.
Thus, the few empty shops in the Great World were quickly rented out. The supply could not meet the demand.
Previously, Pei Qian had instructed Liang Qingfan that the experience store would be at least a few thousand square meters.
Obviously, the Great World would not be able to squeeze out of these places unless they rented a multi-purpose hall.
However, it was fine to use the multi-purpose hall as a competition venue, but it was not suitable to be used as an experience store. Liang Qingfan would probably not do that.
Pei Qian, Tian Mo, and Zhuang Dong got out of the car with confusion.
Liang Qingfan was already waiting by the side of the road.
After introducing and greeting each other, Pei Qian asked the question in his heart, "The new experience store is located in the Great World? Where is it from? "
Liang Qingfan smiled and shook his head. "Of course not. There's really no space in the Great World. What's more, the price is a little high. It's not suitable."
"I chose the building at the back."
As he spoke, Liang Qingfan turned around and pointed behind him.
Pei Qian, Tian Mo, and Zhuang Dong followed Liang Qingfan's finger and saw another shopping mall just a street away from the Great World: Jinsheng Plaza.
